How we handle sink repair in Gay Bowers
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. If you are dealing with chips around the rim and fine cracks across the glaze, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Gay Bowers
Gay Bowers: your questions answered
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Gay Bowers and the rest of Essex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your CM3 postcode.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
When to call us in Gay Bowers
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A chipped vanity basin
- An original basin worth saving
- Crazing in the glaze
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who turns up on the day
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Plumbing leaks
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
